I'd still swap your "very bad" (in 4th place) with our current situation!!
Its all relative depending on your expectations for the seaons surely?
how many places higher up than 4th did you expect then? and how many trophies did you expect?
2nd or 3rd and a cup i thought wasn't too unrealistic at the start of the season. And finishing above spuds. Thats the most upsetting part of it all! My fb wall is littered with gloating spurs fans :(

well - in that case you're only one place off where you expected to be - and you're still in the cup - and even if you get knocked out - that's only one league place and one cup less than expectation!! so - that's not so bad!!

as for us - we're 6 or 7 places below where we might have expected or hoped to be - which is MUCH worse!

cheer up! 8)

as for spuds - you can still catch them - season's not up yet. beat them next week and you're looming in their rear-view mirror...

see - how bad can it be - you still see yourselves as "big guns" .... :wink: (whereas we are defined as relegation fodder..)

I suspect the level of piss-taking from spuds fans on your fb page has some kind of correlation with the much longer history of your piss-taking comments on their pages!! you reap what you sow! :wink:

no, you're right - that's not the excuse... according to Wenger, there are three reasons for Arsenal getting knocked out of the FAcup...

1. that the ref didn't give a penalty for O'Shea's challenge on CamperVan
2. the "difficult schedule"
3. a difficult pitch

otherwise, Arsenal gave a "spirited and committed performance" and the players are to be praised. Also, (Wenger says) "It is always easier to defend than to attack" :shock: (this was meant as a dig at Sunderland's game-plan - but.... If it actually is so easy to defend... - well, I'm sure everyone can complete that sentence for themselves...)

Huh, still don't see why Bolton fans should want Arsenal to do worse then Spurs - not as if you're real enemies of either club!

Don't you want me to be happy?! :cry:

We are real enemies of both clubs.

I dislike Arsenal more. So hope they fail miserably, though really given Wenger is still in charge, thats not in doubt is it?

I'm rather hoping Harry might get the England job and spurs will fall to pieces without him...

I won't tell anyone, GG (Because I've already picked my vantage point and don't want anyone nicking it off of me ;) )

Probably not. Be ace if he did though, from our point of view, and they did implode.

We've still got to play them twice*.

Unfortunately GG you've given too much information away. I too now know where you live. I just don't know what you look like, but that won't be much of a problem, as I'm betting there's only gonna be one fit lady streaking down your 'high' street. :D
